Kenworth T680 LED Headlights
Why Upgrade to LEDs?
LED headlights shine brighter, last longer, and use less power than halogen bulbs. That means better visibility at night and in bad weatherâso you can spot road hazards sooner and drive with more confidence. If you're still running stock halogen headlights, you're missing out. LED T680 headlight replacements give you a cleaner beam, sharper cutoff, and a modern look that turns heads at the truck stop. You can also pair it with other cab lights or a Kenworth T680 visor with light cutouts.Performance That Works for You

Will these LED headlights fit my specific T680 model year?
Most aftermarket LED headlights are designed to fit Kenworth T680 models from 2013 to present. However, there are slight variations between early models (2013-2017) and newer models (2018+) due to minor housing changes. Always verify the specific year range listed for each product, as some LED upgrades are year-specific. Pre-2013 models typically require different mounting brackets or adapters.
Do I need to modify my truck's wiring or add resistors for LED installation?
Quality LED headlights designed for the T680 typically include built-in CANbus decoders and resistors, meaning no wiring modifications are necessary. They should be plug-and-play replacements for your factory halogen lights. However, some budget options may trigger dashboard warning lights or require additional resistor packs. Always choose DOT-approved units with integrated drivers to avoid electrical issues.
What's the actual difference in brightness and visibility compared to stock halogens?
LED headlights typically produce 8,000-12,000 lumens per set compared to 3,000-4,000 lumens from factory halogens. This translates to approximately 200-300% brighter output with a cleaner, whiter light (5500K-6500K color temperature). The beam pattern is more focused, reducing scatter and improving visibility at distances of 500+ feet. Most drivers report significantly better night visibility, especially in rain or fog conditions.
How difficult is the installation process, and what tools do I need?
Installation typically takes 30-45 minutes per side for someone with basic mechanical skills. You'll need a 10mm socket, Phillips screwdriver, and possibly a trim removal tool. The process involves removing the grille surround, disconnecting the factory headlight connector, removing 3-4 mounting bolts, and reversing the process with the new LED unit. Some installations may require adjusting the beam pattern using built-in adjustment screws to meet DOT requirements.
Are chrome or black housing options purely cosmetic, or do they affect performance?
The housing finish (chrome vs. black) is primarily aesthetic and won't affect light output or performance. Chrome housings complement traditional truck styling and match factory chrome grilles, while black housings provide a modern, aggressive appearance that pairs well with blackout packages. Both options use the same LED chips and projector technology. The internal reflector design and LED quality are what determine performance, not the external housing color.
